Priscilla Presley is giving fans a glimpse into Elvis Presley's private life.
The ex-wife of the King of Rock and Roll has revealed where he escapes to when he's not performing: the peaceful Hawaiian Islands.
“He always goes there to relax, unwind and then he gets to do what he has to do and finish up shows in Las Vegas or wherever else he's at and feels good,” Presley said before the event at the Hawaii Theater Center, People magazine reported, via local news outlet KHON2.

“When he performed, I mean, he gave it his all. So that month after he finished performing, he just needed to kick back, not think about anything, relax and appreciate life.”
Hawaii was a special place for the “Hound Dog” singer as he filmed three of his movies in the Aloha State: “Blue Hawaii,” “Hawaiian Style” and “Girls! Girls! Girls!”
According to the event's website, Priscilla reportedly shared intimate footage from the wedding, as well as clips from Elvis's personal career in films and the TV series “Dallas.”

“I don't think he's capable of doing that,” she said of the famous musician while answering questions at South Point Casino in Las Vegas, according to People magazine. “To be honest with you, I never wanted to get married after I married him. I never had any desire.”
“Nobody can compare to him,” she admitted in November 2023.

“Elvis felt his schedule was so busy and he felt a little guilty that he wasn't able to spend as much time with Lisa when she was little,” Priscilla said of the couple's decision not to expand their family.

“He felt that his schedule and touring meant he couldn't devote his full attention to raising another child.”
Lisa Marie died in January from a small intestinal blockage. She was 54 years old.
The couple separated in 1972. Elvis filed for divorce on his 38th birthday in 1973, but the couple remained close.
